Has that ever come out of his mouth before? Could this be the October surprise? Lol

I hate it if that really happened but would not be surprised if this is just another tiananmen square shoot off at the mouth Walz moment

Some one needs to fact check him. He lies every time he opens his mouth.

Is he talking about his special needs son that he abused on national tv?

It's probably going to be that his son played volleyball once at a place where a shooting took place.

It’s a lie, and that’s why Vance highlighted it with sympathy. It will be researched and be unfounded. Brilliant move by Vance

I was wondering as soon as JD said, “I didn’t know that…” if Walz was wishing he’d have just kept his big lying mouth shut! :-)

Yea- first thought was if he ever spoke it before (or not) it’d be in the file

So JD saying he hasn’t heard and and nailing down the story slightly seemed strategic and smart on his feet

If the China story was followed by that being made up I think that could really sway voters. Then you start to have to cover McDonald’s, pork roast, being active duty, being a head coach plus China and witnessing a shooting.

If it’s not documented as true relatively quickly - I think it’s a not inconsequential moment

I caught that sympathy from Vance. He probably knew it was a lie

So, let me get this straight…the governor’s son was in a community center where a shooting went down, and there is no mention of it in the article??? Hmmmm

Usually governor’s children have police escorts, too. Where were they?? Hmmm

Yah that is probably an exaggeration at the very least

Hope it didn’t happen but would not surprise me if his son was in the same town in a gym playing volleyball when a shooting occurred at a gas station.

Walz definitely embellished the story about his son “witness[ing]” the shooting since it happened outside of the rec center unless the volleyball court has windows.

So he hasn't become friends with "school shooters" just shooters.

I don't know why I am getting down voted. All I did was post a story that it actually happened. I was kind of surprised.

As far as Walz kid being there, no mention of it in the article. Seems like the governors son being there would be a talking point
